Protecting Against the New Wave of Malware: Osterman Research

The past successes that many organizations have had in dealing with malware are just that - a thing of the past. Malware is infiltrating systems of all types in places as diverse as the International Space Station (August 2008), British government Web sites (July 2008) and Facebook (August 2008).

Managing and protecting against endpoint security threats continues to get more difficult for most organizations regardless of their size. Malware of all types are becoming more virulent, their authors are becoming better at getting around current defenses, and the profits generated by malware are funding new and more dangerous threats. Traditional approaches just don't work as well as they used to.

This Osterman Research white paper examines why older, traditional antivirus approaches don't work and why a new approach to endpoint security is required to better protect your users, your data and your long-term viability as a company from malicious threats. Learn about the scope of the malware problem strategies that can help you defend against evolving malware threats.
